answer: i really don't see this working. caving to the janitors would mean that they know they have reddit by the balls and can get them to ban anything they dislike - you can bet if this worked, conservative and other "hate subs" would be next. in the end reddit would be effectively surrendering.
by saying that they'll stay closed until they get what they want, not just a temporary blackout like before, they're kinda forcing reddit's hand to remove them as mods. they can't give in to their demands, and they can't let subs stay private forever. hopefully this means no more powermods (maybe)

That's horse shit, they're just asking Reddit to enforce their own policies on covid disinformation

/r/fatpeoplehate and /r/The_donald and /r/gendercritical say hi. Hate speech already isn't welcome on Reddit.
